This is really coming along nicely, Anton, and I'm glad to see you're using a metronome. It's definitely helping to keep you on tempo.

One thing about your recording: there were very few bass notes present, even though I can see you're playing them. Part of what makes this song so beautiful is the competition between the paired notes. I'm not sure if you need to turn up the bass on your guitar or mic it differently. Of course, if you're using the camera's mic, there's not much you can do about that.

All in all, this is a real improvement over the first version.

Anton,
Didnt see the 1st one but looks like you got it down, just bring it up to speed and away you go. Im with Dennis about the base, but I could see you plucking the base strings. They almost sound a little tinny?? or is that my ears, which arent the greatest? Anyway I know it will sound great when you get all the bugs worked out.

You've got that one on the run. Just another few days of practice and you will have it just right.
